Despot of the couch

by

The goddess sits upon her plush,
vibrantly colored throne.
She glances idly at the peasants,
rushing about as if they were of some
importance and not merely pawns.
The minions do her bidding—
feeding her, cleaning up after her, and
showering her with praise.
In return, she gives them something to adore,
and occasionally purrs.
